Eternal rest grant unto Ted, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
I would. Like to write a few words about Robert J Harn Idid not know him personally I would of liked to have but Ive seen some of his works and the tools he used to make rifles, pistols , ect. What a great artisan with wood,and all the other crafts he was involved in. All that I can say is he was very talented,and driven.Upon finding through my research of Mr.Harn he had a very long list of hobbies from gunsmithing to painting,working with metals and his scrimshaw Inlays , ect. I live in nokomis Florida and have came across lots of things he has made and or created. I believe that he would of been very famous but. I believe other than his pioneer gear the Kentucky long rifles, dueling pistols,.and knives to me he was a artist of scrimshaw.and the pieces he created that I have seen should be in the Smithsonian. The micro scrimshaw that I'm honored to have seen and study, some still around. Most of what I have seen has been on all veraities of medium's chisels , tools ,bone just to mention a few what a great contempary artisan With numerous hidden works. if any one collects his memorabilia I would love to take a look, and with my experience will verify authenticity.

When Robert Weil started collecting images for the Contemporary Makers book in 1973 the challenge to record contemporary gun work was daunting. Gathering material was difficult and time consuming. Few makers thought that there was any value in published documentation of their work. Electronic publishing has changed all that. Having a website or having one's work available to view on the internet is becoming a necessity. In spite of all the potential to finally have a true overview of what's being produced by the artists of today, a great deal of work still remains covered up and basically unknown. Our role is to make an effort to document some portion of what’s going on today. To comment on the established makers and to uncover the unknown. We welcome your comments and suggestions and look to you our readers to make us aware of the talented makers out there. Art and Jan Riser Robert Weil and The Makers
